*---------------- Quote: MAC users* "They're not about 'equal functionality for less'," Mr. Asay explained. "They're about 'we're cool and the PC is lame.' People are willing to take a chance on cool. They're less likely to take a chance on 'good enough and cheaper.' No one wants to date you just because you're frugal, but they just might if you're cool."
If the Linux cool factor and marketing don't change, Linux will be forever relegated to the data center and some enterprise desktops. Regrettably, Mr. Asay concluded, the developers responsible for Linux aren't the right people to market the advantages of Linux. ------------- Details --> http://www.macobserver.com/article/2008/08/11.6.shtml -- Patrick Patons Ocira you can predict that some actions will be calculated to be unpredictable _______________________________________________________ Copyright (c) 2008 OCIRA.net - Creative Applications.
